Bitcoin ETFs Log $1.42 Billion Weekly Inflows as BTC Holds Near $95,000

A late-week outflow underscores that concentrated, partly OTC demand will need persistence to translate into a lasting uptrend.

Overview

  • Spot Bitcoin ETFs took in about $1.42 billion for Jan. 12–16, the strongest week since early October, before a $394.68 million pullback on Jan. 16.
  • Midweek drove the surge with roughly $754 million Tuesday and about $844 million Wednesday, lifting category assets to about $124.6 billion by week’s end.
  • BlackRock’s IBIT dominated with approximately $1.035 billion for the week, or 73% of inflows, and about $74.7–$74.8 billion in assets.
  • Ethereum spot ETFs added roughly $479 million for the week, including a $164.37 million day on Jan. 15, with BlackRock’s ETHA leading both daily and weekly totals.
  • Analysts highlight that much IBIT activity is executed OTC and say prior spikes have been short-lived, so several weeks of strong inflows are needed to shift the broader trend.
